What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
1 - How many artworks do they have to be hung? 2 - Are they looking for someone who can assist in designing a quality viewing experience — maximizing the art and the space? 3 - Do they care about precision? 4 - Do they want someone that's insured? The importance of identifying these answers will assist in the outlook, expectations, and right fit for what the customer is ultimately looking for.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once we've established contact, in order to ascertain a smooth work flow, the methodology is as follows: A- Establish the actual number, size, weight of artworks - B- Establish the type of mounting that exists behind each artwork and provide the client a list of the typical hardware mounts involved in order to be prepared for what to bring on site- C- Establish the type of wall(s) that the works will be mounted on - D- Establish whether the client will provide wall mounting supplies or not - E- Clarify that any provided hardware will cost the client a modest fee per artwork - F- Establish if the client will be organized and prepared once I've arrived at the site - G- Establish ease of access and whether a ladder and difficult heights will be an issue - H- Establish with client that odd and atypical working hours such as weekdays after 6 PM and weekends will cost a bit extra hourly, and that the workday hours begins at 10 AM - I- Be sure to establish that works that exceeds the normal guideline of standard artworks ( over 6 feet height or length and weighs more than 20 lbs.) such as heavy mirrors, shelves or any heavier items that require wall anchors will cost an additional fee on top of the hourly rate -
